Chapter 900 Please Stop Him from Going Dark 33
The Snow Country is always covered with ice and snow, and there are rarely sunny days.
Today even more so.
From the moment Jing Yu stepped onto the altar, heavy snow fell from the sky.
Asi stood behind Jingyu and looked at the boy.
He was wearing a white robe, and his exposed skin almost blended into the snow.
There were only the two of them on the empty altar.
Not far away, the king and the queen were walking behind.
Asi raised his eyes and looked over.
The anticipation on the king's face was impossible to ignore.
After all, he is Jingyu's father, but he is looking forward to his death.
Asi felt very uncomfortable.
He quietly reached out and placed his hand on Jing Yu's shoulder.
The gloom in Jing Yu's eyes was slightly broken by her touch.
Tilt your head.
He comforted her, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
Ash hummed.
He whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "I'm right here. No matter what happens next, don't be afraid."
The little girl's voice was soft, and amidst the dancing snowflakes, it was indescribably warm.
It seemed that the cold snowflakes falling on the palms also became soft.
Jing Yu curled his lips and moved closer and closer to the center of the altar.
Sacrifices throughout the continent involve blood.
Today's game.
On the prepared altar, countless livestock were placed in the center.
Tie everything up with ropes and just wait for Jing Yu to burn them.
Because of the successive disasters in the Snow Flower Country, people attach particular importance to today's sacrifice.
There is no room for error, so the ropes used to tie up livestock are also specially modified.
However, when they got closer, they found that the rope showed signs of breaking.
The two people were close to each other, so they could see clearly, but the people below couldn't see it at all.
The king narrowed his eyes and looked at the imperial teacher beside him.
The Imperial Master shouted, "Prince, let's get started!"
When the fire starts, the animals will break free from the ropes and run around.
At that time, Jing Yu will be burned to death for offending the gods.
In the past, the ropes used for sacrifices were not afraid of fire, but today's ropes are different and have been specially treated.
With Jing Yu's personality, whether he could see that there was something wrong with the rope was one thing, but even if he could see it, he didn't have the courage to confront the king.
"Wizard, did you tie up all these animals yourself?"
“…”
Why is it different from what I thought?
The wizard looked coldly at the maid behind the eldest prince.
He laughed and said, "Of course I tied it myself. Only animals tied by a wizard can be sacrificed to the gods!"
After saying this, he was afraid that they would delay time because they would die sooner or later anyway.
He said coldly: "If you miss the time, the gods will be angry, why don't you light the fire quickly!"
Asi hummed and pushed Jingyu back.
He said in his loudest voice, loud enough for everyone around to hear: "Wizard! If you tied it yourself, why is there a crack in the rope? Could it have been burned by a fire? Please come down and take a look!"
The little girl has a loud voice.
The wizard on the stage looked grim.
"That's impossible! You'd better set the fire quickly! Otherwise, if you waste time, I'll hold you accountable!"
At this time.
But the king raised his hand.
Slowly walked down from the throne.
"King! What are you doing!"
The king said nothing and walked straight to the center of the altar.
At this moment, those eyes looked at Jing Yu with pity.
